107 Chapter 106 (2/2)
”Is that true?”
”Yes. You would need to find work here in Nakyang anyway, don't you?”
”You are right. If I'm going to stay in Nakyang, I have to do what I can.”
Ha Gojun then bowed at Kang Hyuk.
”I look forward to working with you! Teacher! And Assistant Chun!”
And just like that, Kang Hyuk got a new assistant.
Shim Gu was pleased to hear that Ha Gojun became Kang Hyuk's assistant, while Ji Myung almost got beat up by Kang Hyuk as he ranted that he wanted to be an assistant himself.
Chun Haekwang was staying at Kang Hyuk's house for now, but he planned to get a house and live there while commuting his way here.
He only had two months to live in the house, so he had to find a house during that time.
As for Ha Gojun, he already had a place to stay in Nakyang, so he decided to commute from there.
”But Goyun is late.”
Ha Gojun tilted his head, gauging the time with the sun in the sky.
Shim Gu laughed at the remark.
”They're having a good time together. Then again, what are you worried about when you have Aerin?”
Ji Myung smiled and said, ”Well, whatever happens, Goyun will be fine. I gave Goyun what I got from the pipe guy before.”
The pipe guy was supposed to be Ji Chulmook.
”What did you get from him?”
When Kang Hyuk asked, Ji Myung replied, rubbing his bald head.
”What was the name…? It was called… Screaming Ball?”
”Screaming Ball!?”
Shim Gu opened his mouth in surprise at the name.
”My, you crazy bastard! You gave her that dangerous thing?”
Screaming Ball. It was a bracelet meant to make one scream in agony, and it was a kind of self-defense weapon.
”Are you trying to make a man sterile?”
When asked by Shim Gu, Ji Myung replied with a smile.
”Hahaha! Don't worry Blackie. I told her to use it only when she's threatened with life or kidnapped.”
Kang Hyuk nodded at the remark.
”Goyun is an intelligent child. She understands Ji Myung's nonsense like no one else. If Goyun used the Screaming Ball, its victim will have no defense to claim against being used.”
Chun Haekwang and Ha Gojun tilted their heads at the conversation.
What the hell does the Screaming Ball do?
It was then.
-Shiiiiiek!
A sharp flute was heard in the ears of Kang Hyuk, Shim Gu, and Ji Myung. It was a tone that no one else could hear, and only a dozen people who were members of the Quickstorms could hear. And the signal meant…
”This is Aerin's signal!”
”It's an emergency!”
Kang Hyuk nodded at their words.
”It seems so.”
Ha Goyun was excited to see the bazaar after a long time.
It was more exciting to see the bazaar than to buy the fabric to make her clothes.
That was especially because she was with a sweet and pretty woman like Byuk Aerin.
”Aerin! What is that?”
Ha Goyun pointed to what a street vendor was selling. It was grilled on a skewer.
”That's a meat skewer. Do you want to eat some?”
Ha Goyun, at the question, was wary of Byuk Aerin, and there was no way that she didn't know the meaning of it.
”You can answer without worrying about it. I'm a nice person.”
”I-I want to eat.”
In response, Byuk Aerin bought two skewers from a street vendor. They grilled lamb and put on special soy sauce, and it was very delicious.
”Is it good?”
”Yes! It's delicious!”
They then continued to eat lamb skewers and walked around the bazaar before entering a store.
”Welcome!”
